Simplifying the installation process for fix packs and patches

Currently, updating involves installing fixes at the Deployment Manager (dmgr), which only updates one side of the cluster. The second side requires manual updates to each application server within that cluster, which can be cumbersome. A significant improvement would be to enable users to select and update multiple servers simultaneously, streamlining the process. This enhancement would eliminate the need for individual server searches and drilling down, making the installation of fix packs or patches more user-friendly and efficient.

    Your submitted idea covered the following for the product:
